Answer:

x=5±√5, x=5-√5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's why:

First, keep the terms on the left-hand side and subtract 20 from both sides to get:

Original Equation: x²-10x+20=0

x²-10x+20-20=0-20

=x²-10x=-20

Next, use the property [b⋅1/2]². Notice that b is -10 in this case:

[b⋅1/2]²

=[-10⋅1/2]²

=25

Then, add the result, 25, to both sides of the equation in Step 1.

x²-10x+25=-20+25

Notice that the left side is a perfect square, so you can factor it out:

x²-10x+25=-20+25

=(x-5)²=-20+25

Combine like terms on the right-hand side:

(x-5)²=-20+25

=(x-5)²=5

Then, take the square root of both sides:

√(x-5)²=±√5

The square cancels out, which leaves you with:

x-5=±√5

Finally, isolate x by solving for the variable.

x-5=±√5

=x=5±√5

Therefore, your final answer is:

x=5±√5

When you are solving for other questions that involve completing the square, always remember to follow these steps, and you'll be good to go.

Hope this helped! :)

Solve the system of equations by substitution: y = x - 2
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x - 2

x + y = 12

Substitute the first expression for y into the second equation.

x + (x - 2) = 12

2x - 2 = 12

2x = 14

x = 7

Now plug into either equation to find y.

y = 7 - 2

y = 5

So the solution is (7, 5).

Find the missing side or angle.<br> Round to the nearest tenth.
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

b = 2.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

< C = 53°

< B = 80°

a = 2

Required:

Find b

Solution:

The question given suggests we are given measures for a ∆.

To find side b, which corresponds to angle B, first, we'd find angle A, which corresponds to side a, then apply the Law of sines to find side b.

=> A = 180 - (53 + 80) = 47°

Law of Sines: \frac{a}{sin(A} = \frac{b}{sin(B}

Plug in the values into the formula

\frac{2}{sin(47} = \frac{b}{sin(80}

Cross multiply

2*sin(80) = b*sin(47)

Divide both sides by sin(47) to make b the subject of formula

\frac{2*sin(80)}{sin(47} = b

2.69 = b

b = 2.7 (nearest tenth)

Felicia places a rectangular rug that measures 10 feet by 11 feet in a triangular room with a base of 30 feet and height of 22 f
arsen [322]

Answer:

1. Area of rectangular rug is 110 ft^{2}

2. Area of triangular room is 330ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of flat shapes, rectangle and triangle.

step one

let us start by solving for the area of the rectangular rug

given data

Area A =  ?

Length l =  11 ft

Width w=  10 ft

we know that the area of a rectangle is expressed as

Area=Length * Width

substituting our given data we have

Area= 11*10\\Area= 110 ft^{2}

step two

let us  solve for the area of the triangular room

given data

Area A =  ?

base b =  30 ft

height  h=  22 ft

we know that the area of a triangle is expressed as

Area= \frac{1}{2} *base* height\\

substituting our given data we have

Area= \frac{1}{2} * 30* 22\\Area=\frac{660}{2} \\Area= 330 ft^{2}

If b is 50 degrees, what is the measure of angle d? (Write the number only)
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

50º

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle D & B are vertical angles, meaning they are equal in measure.

So if Angle B = 50º, then Angle D must also be 50º.

Hope this helps! Have a great day!
